Introduction Enzymes are proteins produced by living organisms to speed up the rate in which chemical reactions occur. This process can happen fast‚ slowly‚ or stop the chemical reaction all together depending on the temperature‚ pH and concentration. Catalase is one of the most common enzymes. It is found in living organisms and is used to break down hydrogen peroxide. This must happen because hydrogen peroxide is considered toxic to cells in the body. However‚ when catalase is used it breaks

Enzyme Activity Lab Objective: To determine the effect of temperature‚ PH and enzyme concentration on catalase activity. Introduction: What is an enzyme and how the enzyme works. Any of a group of complex proteins or conjugated proteins thatare produced by living cells and act as catalysts in specific biochemical reactions. The system in which enzymes work is often referred to as the ’lock and key’ system it’s where the enzyme and the substrate lock together. The substrate then unlocks into

used up during the reaction and can keep catalyzing reactions till there are no more substrates. However enzymes are tertiary proteins structures and are very dependent on the environment in which they reside in. Many factors such as pH‚ temperature‚ and salinity can affect the shape of the active site on the enzyme and decrease the rate of the reaction. Many tertiary proteins such as enzymes depend on various weak ionic bond‚ hydrogen bonds‚ disulfide bridges‚ and hydrophobic interactions(van der
